The Word

Pete's View

Every successful team needs someone who can keep their head when everyone else is losing theirs, and that's exactly what Danny King brings to Plymouth.

A former British Champion with countless big meetings behind him, Danny's greatest strength isn't just his speed—it's his judgement. He knows when to attack, when to defend and, more often than not, where a race will be won long before the first bend arrives.

As captain, he sets the standard around the pits as much as he does on the track. Younger riders naturally gravitate towards his experience, while supporters know they'll always get one hundred per cent commitment every time he lines up at the tapes.

When the pressure builds and the meeting reaches its defining moments, Danny is exactly the sort of rider every club wants wearing their colours.
